Going along with great articles in todays Wall Street Journal, Ellen M. Kozak's piece "Forget Martha Stewart-Try Mother Hubbard," talks about the benefits of getting rid of all the junk in your house, or more commonly known as "de-cluttering." Check out this great article that can be a great way to get into the Spring and Summer feeling!
The idea has taken hold in recent months. I have been disposing of boxes filled with junk (or, if you prefer, treasured family possessions that have been passed to me though the years) and helping the family of a friend do the same. In the process, my decorating fantasies are shifting from Martha Stewart-style rooms filled with charming doodads to living with (and taking care of) not just fewer and fewer things—but virtually none at all.
